Hey guys so I am trying to help a buddy out with with his 2006 zx3. The current issue is that the Passenger side high beam is not working. Here is the list of things I have looked into so far.
- Replaced the light bulb with a good known one. New bulb and the one from drivers side. Both work on the drivers side socket.
- Checked voltage on the white wire and it has zero volts as the other side has 12v on the same spot when High Beams are triggered.
- Checked fuse but should be fine as its working on one side and they are tied together. Replaced with a spare just as good measure.
- Checked the wiring that I can see. So far nothing looks pinched or broken.
- Changed the relay out with two different junkyard units. Exact same relay and is still working with drivers side headlight. So it checks out. At least the broken case one is gone now.
- Tired to get continuity from the relay spot in the fuse box to the headlight socket. But got nothing for both sides. Anybody know what socket on the 5 spots on the relay are for passenger side headlight. It should be #5 as its the output. #1 is straight power and the switch is #2 and #3. #4 is a ground.
So is there anything else I should look for. Anybody know how the wiring is routed. The car maybe have been in a 5 mph accident. Maybe its broke a wire so I would like to trace it all the way threw the system. Is there a common issue with these cars to have a headlight now work. Been doing some searching but nothing really standing out or it has checked out on ours.
Thanks in advance.
